Introductions Are In Order . . .


     Once in a while I get a sense of urgency to do SOMETHING constructive. An overbearing urge of motivation to be constructive and take a jab back at life. Although, it's short lived and my life leads back into repetitiveness, I can't help but always keep the feeling of there being more to life and it's up me to push myself to keep life interesting in a positive way.
     I have my wife and three children and are in the process of having a home built in a quiet peaceful neighborhood on the outskirts of the county but that's not what I mean by being interesting. Have you ever seen the movie where people look like they get paid to be in exotic places in far reaches of the planet? I want that. Not all the time but enough to appreciate it and anticipate it again in the near future.
     I work a normal M-F 7:30-4:00 job and get paid well to do what is I do. The typical benefits, vacation time, 401k and pension plan. Seems pleasant during this harsh economical times that we live in, I know but I've always felt from a young age I was meant to do more. Let me emphasize, I don't mean stardom or riches and all glamor that comes with it. It's actually more boring than that. It's almost like a sense of continuous self accomplishment. I am proud of the few things I do right with my life but it takes a continuos effort and it's really never over. Marriage and Kids specifically. I've made a bit more positive decisions in the recent past and am happy with my position in life but it hasn't always been the case with me. I have a laundry list of mistakes that, at times crippled me. Made me feel like there was never any light in the world. I guess what I'm trying to get at is, what this book is going to be about? My self reflection of how my life has gone up and down? The solid good fun times and some gravely bad extinguished times or the poor decisions and the strong decisions? The creation of rainy day peers.
